Key Account Manager - DACH (F/M/X)

At Yousign, we are reinventing the electronic signature experience with a fast, legal, secure and 100% European SaaS solution. 🖊⚡

Founded in 2013 by Luc Pallavidino and Antoine Louiset in Caen, our scale-up is now present in France 🇫🇷, Italy 🇮🇹 and Germany 🇩🇪 !

Our goal? To become the European leader in electronic signatures by enabling freelancers and SMBs, to simplify
their workflows. 🤸♀️

🚀 In order to achieve this…

• 2019: we integrated into the eFounders, one of the best SaaS start-up studios in Europe,
• 2021: we raised 30 million euros from the eFounders and Lead Edge Capital, famous for having invested in
  BlaBlaCar, Asana, Zoom, Spotify and Uber.

We offer two e-signature solutions:

• a web app, ready to use and accessible from anywhere,
• an API (Application Program Interface), which can be easily integrated into business softwares

At this time, Yousign is :

• more than 200 yousigners in our offices in Paris and Caen, or in full-remote (+40% are working remotely) 👦 💻
• more than 12,000 customers who trust us on a daily basis 🤝
• over 4 million signatures every month 🔝
• An impressive annual growth rate, which makes us the most successful e-signature scale-up in Europe 🇪🇺
